 Mrs. Charles Albrecht, treasurer. 

 The following executive committee

 Ed. Green, F. Bright and Pauline 

 Jung. Meetings are to be held each 

 month and the membership will in-

The regular meeting of the TTl City 

 Florists' Club was held at the resi- 

 dence of Wm. Knees. 



President John Staack called the 

 meeting to order and the following 

 resolutions were adopted. 



Resolved, whereas our former fellow 

 member, Theo. Ewoldt on the 8th day 

 of April, 1914, paid the last great debt 

 of nature and passed into the beyond: 



Therefore, be it resolved; that the 

 Trl City Florists' Club, in his death 

 are called upon to mourn one of its 

 most valued and useful members, one 

 where professional knowledge was 

 ever at the command of any fellow 

 worker, where cheery good nature 

 and jovial disposition added pleasure 

 to our meetings and whose merits and 

 value as a citizen will not be easily 

 replaced in his community. 



Be it further resolved; ' that these 

 resolutions be spread upon the min- 

 utes of the Society and a copy fur- 

 nished to the family and to the trade 

 papers.
